11/1/2018: Well I am pretty bummed out at the moment. In fact I am totally reluctant to talk about it. But here goes nothing. I never even imagined for a second that my 2017 P1 would die on me! This afternoon while I was at work I looked over at my white Tama with Marutchi sick on the screen, and since I had the sound off it was silent. But I knew he was dying because I couldn't use any of the buttons. Either way he departed from me at only age 5. :( There are definitely quite a few differences with this Tam compared to that of its 1997 ancestor. I don't know what I did.... I don't know why he didn't change into a teenager. I have zero idea what this is about, but I don't like it at all.... I've decided to restart my 2017 P1 again and once again have Marutchi in my care. I am just going to take care of him like I have been doing all week. There is no way I could have done something THAT bad for him to just die... We will see what happens this time.... He got sick A LOT over the last few days, and his discipline calls exceeded 100% - in fact the total number of disciplines I gave him totaled 225%. Like I said.... Definitely not a 1997 Tama.... Anyways we will see what happens. I was really busy this week at work, and I have had a lot going on. I got a new iPhone last night and joined up with a new company. In with the new and out with the old! :) I got to keep my old phone number though so that is good. Today I was kinda worn out at work and had a bad stomach, and still kinda do now tonight as well.... Just playing it by ear and see how I feel.... My Marutchi just went to bed at age 1, 10 units of weight, and full hearts accross the board. I really hope I do better with him this time...! Ginji and Zukitchi are both still here at age 11 and they've been wonderful company while at work. Ginji has yet to get sick but Zukitchi did yesterday - he always gets needy so young.....! ANyways I will update in a few days if/when I get the teen on my 2017 P1! :) Until then..... Back to main page
